If you happen to be in the southern New Jersey area this weekend, the Shore Cycle Club is putting on the annual Winter Bike Shop Expo. It’s a chance to check out new models from the likes of Bianchi, Fuji, Jamis, Giant, Specialized, and Trek, and to hear a couple of speakers: David Hale Sylvester, accomplished world traveler (by bike) and author of the book “Traveling at the Speed of Life,” and yours truly, Karen Brooks, editor of Bicycle Times.

The Shore Cycle Club’s newsletter pointed out how important it is to keep riding through the winter—if you haven’t, and need some motivation, come out and visit the Expo.

Hours are 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. Sunday. Sylvester will be speaking at 12:30, and I’ll go on at 2:00.
